Description
Circa 1900. Atop a ridge in Blue Ridge Mountains, this 1900 Country Victorian inn has been a retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life for the past 100 years. Built as a doctor's home and office, the downstairs was used to care for the sick and the upstairs to house paying guests who came to the area for the healthy mountain air. The gardens include rhododendrons, perennials, herbs and vegetables. Its seven comfortably furnished guest rooms are perfect for relaxing after a day at the Biltmore Estate, shopping, golfing, hiking, skiing, rafting, trail rides or partaking of local natural hot mineral baths. Breakfasts include such treats as the inn's signature frittata, homemade bread and muffins.
